When a body is found, police secure the scene and begin an investigation to determine the cause of death. Even if it's not initially thought to be suspicious, as in Noah's case, a post-mortem examination is conducted. This helps establish facts and provides answers to the family, ensuring all circumstances are thoroughly understood.
